Blessed Are the Crazy: Breaking the Silence about Mental Illness, Family and Church
Book information
Description
When do you learn that "normal" doesn't include lots of yelling, lots of sleeping, lots of beating? In Blessed Are the Crazy: Breaking the Silence about Mental Illness, Family, and Church, Sarah Griffith Lund looks back at her father's battle with bipolar disorder, and the helpless sense of déjà vu as her brother and cousin endure mental illness as well. With a small group study guide and "Ten Steps for Developing a Mental Health Ministry in Your Congregation," Blessed Are the Crazy is more than memoir—it's a resource for churches and other faith-based groups to provide healing and comfort. Part of The Young Clergy Women Project.
